What’s the only thing cooler than auto racing? Auto racing in the 1960s and ‘70s, that’s what. And that era of Can-Am racing produced some of the most memorable events and cars the world has ever seen. Now McLaren has a 650S that salutes this era, and I want one.

This is the McLaren 650S Can-Am. The name’s not very clever but the livery is sexy enough to make up for it. It’s a 50-model special edition that goes into production next spring to coincide with the 50th anniversary of the first Can-Am race at Mont Tremblant, Canada.

McLaren has a lot of history in that series. Bruce McLaren Motor Racing began just a year before it began, and young McLaren’s racing team was one of the most dominant there in the late 1960s.
